Description

TAG is a really useful directive to organize specifications into different orders depending on precedence, importance, or whatever. The problem is that many of our engineers expect it to mean something else and misuse it, leaving it for the spec editors to clean up. It's a very simple directive to explain and useful to add to a spec. Please add it to your Swagger 2.0/OpenAPI 3.0 spec tutorials. Thx.

Locate the Swagger 2.0 and OpenAPI 3.0 specification tutorials in the documentation. Read how existing directives are explained, then document TAG usage and its intended purpose in both tutorials. Done means both tutorials clearly explain the directive so engineers are less likely to misuse it.
